The Reborn Bamboo Horse Wife

Chapter 4

Seeing that he was about to reach the door of his house, Xia Shiyuan said to Wei Wei, "Are you coming to my house? I'll make white wormwood for you to eat!"

Wei Wei hesitated for a moment and said: "Then you wait for me at home for a while, and I will tell my grandfather to come find you again!"

Xia Shiyuan nodded, okay!The two men divided into two groups. Xia Shiyuan put all the Artemisia wormwood they got in the yard and washed it with water. You shouted: Xia Shiyuan, where are you?

Xia Shiyuan quickly responded: Here it is!Come here!

The two walked into the kitchen together, Xia Shiyuan accompanied the white wormwood and noodles with water and said to Wei Wei: If you feel bored, go out and play for a while, and call you when I'm ready!

Wei Wei waved his hands and said generously: You don't have to worry about me if you do what you want!

In fact, he thought it was quite interesting to watch Xia Shiyuan bit his lip and cook seriously!The little guy looks so funny standing in front of the chopping board!

But after a while, he felt that he couldn't laugh anymore, because Xia Shiyuan obviously didn't have enough energy, and he would shake his sore arms after a while!He felt a little unhappy seeing the other party so tired!

So, he stood up and pulled Xia Shiyuan aside, stirred himself up, and said, "Look at your little arms and legs, you won't starve me to death until you're done!"It's just that the base of the ear is a little red!

Xia Shiyuan didn't expose him, but he looked at Wei Wei and then at himself. Even though they were the same age, he was much stronger than him, even half a head taller!

But seeing that Wei Wei was obviously thinking of him and didn't say anything, Xia Shiyuan laughed happily!When Wei Wei heard his laughter, she also raised the corner of Yang's mouth quietly!

While Wei Xun was mixing noodles, Xia Shiyuan put the firewood in the stove to heat up hot water, put on the grate, and when Wei Xun was done mixing, he found a big plastic bag, washed it, tore it open, and spread it on the grate Put the mixed white wormwood on it, cover the pot, and the two of them just sit there and light the fire!

The sound of cracking matches was accompanied by the voice of children,

"Xia Shiyuan, is this really edible? I didn't tell my grandfather the truth, I tricked him into telling it for fun"

"You don't believe me! It must be edible, I saw it in the newspaper that time"

"Which newspaper did you read it in?"

"That newspaper that Chen Meng used to wrap the book cover!"

"Really, let me see it tomorrow!"

"She broke it a long time ago, and replaced it with another one! I only saw it after helping her take out the trash!"

"Ah! Xia Shiyuan, does she always bully you? Let's see who dares to bully you in the future, and I'll beat him!"

Wei Wei's attention was diverted in an instant, and the time passed as the two chattered about it!

At that time, there were no plastic book covers like the ones we buy now, and most students in rural areas were looking for newspapers to wrap their books, in case the books were scattered before the end of the semester!Therefore, the book cover is not strong and is often changed. No one can verify whether what Xia Shiyuan said is true or not!

About half an hour later, the white wormwood was steamed. When the lid was opened, the fragrance of the grass and trees wafted into the nostrils. Wei Yan was drooling at the smell, and shouted in disbelief: "Xia Shiyuan, it seems to be really delicious. look!"

Xia Shiyuan heard this and said: I've told you not to lie to you, believe it now!

Wei Wei just nodded and picked up his chopsticks to eat!

Seeing this, Xia Shiyuan pulled him aside with a twitch of the corner of his mouth: Now that this dish is so hot, you can eat it, you are not afraid of diarrhea at night, you!

Hearing this, Wei Wei waved his hands and said, it's all right, all right!But he obediently put down his chopsticks!He wasn't afraid of diarrhea, but mainly because he was afraid that if he really had diarrhea, others would blame Xia Shiyuan!

Xia Shiyuan scooped out the wormwood with a shovel and put it in a basin. Wei Wei watched his movements and said, "Hey, I always call you Xia Shiyuan too unfamiliar! Change your name!"

Xia Shiyuan shook his head amusedly when he heard this, and asked, "What do you want to be called! My family calls me Xiaoyuan, so you should call me Xiaoyuan too!"

Wei Wei shook his head and said: No, I want something special, I don’t want to be like them!Well, how about I call you Xia Xia?

Xia Shiyuan heard the name and said speechlessly: No, just like a girl!

But Wei Wei laughed and said, you don't feel it yet, but once you say it, I think you really look like a little girl!I will call you Xia Xia from now on!

Xia Shiyuan shook his head firmly, but Wei Wei just pretended not to see it!So, it's settled!

Wei Wei wanted to say something, but heard the sound of the door opening, the two of them went out together, only to see Xia's father, Xia, mother and three siblings coming back together!

I'm not too busy now, the main thing is to weed the grass in the field so that it will not be full of grass seeds after harvesting the wheat. The other three are mowing the grass after school to feed the pigs, chickens and ducks!

Xia's father and Xia's mother were taken aback when they saw Wei Wei coming out of their kitchen when they entered the door. The youngest has never brought a classmate home before!But Dad Xia still asked, "Why did Wei Wei come here when you have time?"

Xia's mother also asked suspiciously: "Little sister, are you here to play?"

Wei Wei smiled and said, "That's right! I'm here to play with Xia Xia! We came back together after school!"

The couple looked at each other, and felt that it was a good thing for Xia Shiyuan to make friends, so they asked, "Then why are you running away to the stove? Could it be that Xiaoyuan is cooking food again!"

This was a casual remark, but Xia Shiyuan said, "Mom and Dad, we steamed some Artemisia basilisk, what do you guys think?"

The two of them glanced at him in surprise, walked into the kitchen, saw the white wormwood in the pot, and wanted to ask what was going on, they had never seen this way of eating before, so Xia Shiyuan walked in and told Wei Wei what he had just said. He explained it to them a lot!It's just a touch up!

In fact, Xia Shiyuan was quite surprised that people in this place didn't know that Artemisia baicalensis could be eaten like this!

But think about it, it may be because the customs of each place are different!

It was a bit late at this time, Wei Wei was going home, he was very reluctant to part with Xia Shiyuan, he had never gotten along with such a good friend!

But Xia Shiyuan looked at him softly and said, "I'll call you when I go to school tomorrow morning. Let's go together!"

Then gave him a small pot of Artemisia annua and told him to take it away!Said to let him go home and eat it or fry it!He also specially gave him a little seasoning sauce that he just made!

When he thought about seeing him tomorrow morning, he felt relieved!Holding the white wormwood in the pot, I went to show off to my grandpa!

When I got home, I saw Grandpa practicing big characters!He curled his lips, his grandfather was stuck in the book all day and almost couldn't get out!

He also practices big characters every day, let him practice along with him!Fortunately, people send money every season!Otherwise he thought they both would starve to death!

It seems that he really has to work hard to make money, otherwise what should he do if he can't support his family and can't go to school?

"Grandpa, look at the white wormwood I brought, it's very delicious!"

"It's not like I haven't eaten white wormwood, eh? It seems to be different from what I cook!"

"Of course, Xia Xia did this!"

"Who is Xia Xia? You are so close!"

"Xia Shiyuan! Didn't you still tell me about him? You were the one who named him!"

Elder Tang narrowed his eyes: "You said that child..."

Wei Wei couldn't help being proud: "Yes, Xia Xia is amazing! He even gave me the seasoning sauce to bring back, but this stir-fry is also delicious!"

That swearing look, as if he had already eaten it!

It happened that Mr. Tang made porridge, and as soon as he mixed the vegetables and seasonings, the two of them came to eat!I can't stop eating this time, I always feel that the seasoning is different from the usual one!

Originally, Mr. Tang thought it would be superfluous to bring back the seasoning sauce!I really don't have anything to say now!

Xia Shiyuan's family hasn't eaten yet!After all, I was only focused on cooking just now, so I didn't have time to cook the soup.

Although most families are not as poor as in the 80s and [-]s, there are very few families in the countryside who can eat rice every meal!

Farmers basically rely on the sky for food, and have to pay public grain every year!When the harvest is good, everyone still wants to sell some grain to make some money, but if the harvest is not good, they can barely make ends meet and are satisfied!

So you have to save some white noodles, sweet potato noodles and corn noodles to make cakes, noodles, steamed buns, etc. Corn grits are a must-have for every household!

Mama Xia cooks corn grits, and the whole family enjoys it with Artemisia baicalensis!They all said that they never knew that this food could be so delicious!

Xia's mother was even more puzzled and said: "Xiaoyuan, why do I feel that the taste of the dishes we prepared are so different!"

Xia Shiyuan's seasoning sauce was carefully researched in his previous life, so it is naturally much better than the usual ones!

Hearing this, his heart moved, maybe he could make a small fortune by taking this opportunity!

But it came back: "Is there any? Why can't I feel it, maybe the amount of seasoning is different!"

Mother Xia nodded in agreement, after all, everyone has a different habit of adding seasonings!

When it was time to go to bed at night, Xia Shiyuan encountered a problem again!

It turned out that the original owner used to sleep with Xia's mother because of fear at night. Xia's father had a small bed, Xia's second sister had a one-size bed, and the eldest brother and third brother shared a bed!

But what should we do now?Let him be a big man (even psychologically) to sleep with Mama Xia!This is simply unbearable!

He knocked on his forehead depressedly, turned around and said to Xia's mother seriously: Mom, I will learn to be independent from today on!

Xia's mother didn't know, so: I know!What's wrong?

"So, I can't sleep with you anymore! Besides, you are a girl and I am a boy!"

Xia's mother laughed loudly after hearing this: "Hey, baby, why are you so embarrassed to sleep with mom? Are you not afraid at night?"

Xia Shiyuan straightened his chest: "What are you afraid of? I'm a man!"

All right!He also felt that he was acting a little naive now, but this was a normal reaction of a child, wasn't it?And he feels that as his body gets smaller, he seems to be more childlike?

Father Xia heard the voice coming from the house, and heard his imposing words as soon as he arrived at the door, he was stunned and joked: "The little kid's hair hasn't even grown yet! You're still a man!"

Countless black lines were drawn on Xia Shiyuan's head, do you think I don't understand anything since I was young?

However, no matter what the process was, in the end he switched beds with Papa Xia!

Father Xia lay on the bed and said, "Daughter-in-law, since Xiaoyuan was two years old, we have been sleeping in separate beds for five years!"

Harvest a fist.

Xia Shiyuan thought about what happened today, and felt that he could finally breathe a sigh of relief!The hardest first day is over, isn't it?Maybe in two days you can earn a small sum of money!

I fell asleep like this before I knew it, the moonlight sprinkled on the ground through the window, and tomorrow is a brand new day!
